JamesSchneider RamonTrotman lol I enjoy the tom foolry on facebook, and the targeting of twitter…and even the geekfest on g+, but I’ve invested a great deal in “Ramon Trotman” as a brand, and linkedin is where that all ties together. I’ve scored multiple interviews from contacts on linkedin alone. It really is the social network of choice for professionals.
